Where in the Universe is EVE SOB - April 2010

It is time for this month’s “Where in the Universe is EVE SOB” post where every month I summarize where I am at in EVE. I also throw in some real world stuff and the top CNN headline of the day for a historical WTF was the world doing back then element.

Where am I?

It has been an interesting month for me in EVE having found myself at the cross roads. As a result I have taken the dynamic duo and split them into different paths. All of this to keep my sanity and add some spice to my EVE life. As a result there will be a slight change in format here.

SonOfBraben remains at the helm of HCSH in highsec living the hermit life building ships, mining, running missions, and grumbling.

ZombiNutz has been cut loose to explore the world of PvP in EVE with a currently undetermined focus.

How’s building stuff doing?

The corp. itself is ticking along towards it goals wearing down the standings needed for a highsec research POS. Ship building is steady and T1 mods and ammo are selling well. The biggest change is that the mission running for standings is actually funneling in a good clip of income, crap to reprocess, and salvage bits. Meaning the need to mine has greatly been reduced. This makes me very happy and allows me to continue this steady semi passive income stream.

How’s shooting stuff doing?

I am currently still looking for a corp. to land in to begin my schooling in PVP. I’ve had some suggestions given by folks in the blog community. I’ve also been poking around recruitment channels looking for the right spot.

I expect the next week or so will see a direction here.

What Skills am I training?

SonOfBraben: Finished T2 small blasters, some trade skills, shield tanking the hulk, and social skills. Now he is training core improved skills for the next 32 days. After this a LvL 4 Mission Domi fit will begin estimated at 82 days.

Zombinutz can now fly an orca \o/ which is a shame as he is now going to live in a blaster Incursus for a while now. The plan was to go with HM and HAM to T2 next but that has now become an 8 day boot camp to get into a cookie cutter rifter auto cannon fit. Further than that it all depends on where I land in the PvP world.

In that pesky real world:

My EVE space is compete finally. I've added some EVE gear to it in the form of a Gallente mug, mouse pad, and a 30X20 EVE legends poster. With the scare with my wives colon I am all about getting to my annual physical and spending time each day on the floor to ceiling bag. Aside from that the spring is here and we all cannot be happier to say goodbye to winter.
